Personal Experience

I personally have fished this lake for years, and know for a fact it is a great fising lake. Caught an 8 pound bass here on the same day my friend caught his limit of largemouth bass. I use my trolling motor and a couple of batteries and can cover most of the lake pounding the area with plastic worms.
